ON
THE ROMAN ROAD ACEOS THE FUTA PASS: following the few
words witten by the Latin historian Tito Livio in 187 B.C.
about the construction of a junction road between Arezzo
and Bologna, and following also other renowned opinions
of more "modern" historians, in very recent times
the remains of this ancient paved road together with a lot
of fragments in terracotta have been brought to light from
a depth of more than 20 kilometres. These gave life to the
museums in Bruscoli.
